So while the price of a meal in the cafeteria has increased 10-15% over the past year, my pay increase was a lousy 3%..... You do the math...... Definitely a competitive work environment!

For people selected? Or there's something more nefarious hiding behind it? I really hope they'll eventually explain what it's all about.

Any info on voluntary severance packages for employees over 50?

Please sit tight. If and when you are impacted, you will be told. Yes, certain divisions will be announced (notified) Monday. Healthspring and legacy Blue are treated the same way…within a given division. It is so easy for these threads to go off... — read more 

Anyone else have people in their office pack stuff up, and told they’re being moved to telecommuter status? I am in the Richardson office and a large number of people were abruptly told we’re moving to telecommuter. I’m happy, but don’t understand... — read more 

I guess I am creating this thread for us who want to vent. Type away.

My whole team is remote. I was told that I need to go to the office 3 days/week starting April. Nobody knows where I'm supposed to be reporting... the chicago office has 50+ stories. There was zero guidance during my orientation.

Is it only Maurice that gets a yes? Need to backfill a role? We get no. Need funding for a broken process? We get no. Need funding to improve a process or build a client request? We get no. Want to promote a hard worker? We get no. ... — read more 

Maurice Smith, at today's town hall. Brain dead. Also: he says culture is strategy. He means culture eats strategy for breakfast. It is a famous quote. From a book. You know, the things he says he does not read.

Jill listens to Nickelback.

So exciting!!! Will we learn Maurice’s favorite Cookie flavor? Action hero? Thoughts on the upcoming World Cup? What will he read to us today?

Expect cuts across all divisions all markets coming very soon. VERY Nobody is safe, Presidents, VP’s down the line. Good luck all, hope you’re on the good list.

If you go into the office do you need to be logged in for a certain amount of hours on your computer? Does HCSC track that?

Hi everyone, i know it's a long shot, but I am genuinely looking into how to possibly "volunteer" for layoff. I am burnt out and going to take a career break, but how can I be part of layoffs if there is a second round? Might as well try to get some... — read more 

Something changed. Managers used to be fine. Now they're toxic, yelling, pitting us against each other. Six years here and the last two have been awful. No idea how some of these people still have jobs.

So now we have to sign a confidentiality and non compete document as a condition of employment annually. Funny. Never saw this before today and absolutely zero information on it. Thanks Monique

Our work in federal has decreased so significantly we are getting extremely nervous.. has anyone heard anything about possible layoffs over here?

HR employees, what are your thoughts around our most recent townhall?? Mine: could've been an email and Bye Anne!

How does HCSC respond to a 2 or 3 week notice? Some companies walk you out immediately and terminate on the spot. I have health and wellness days available, should I turn in a 2 or 3 week notice and use some of those days? Any other recommendations... — read more 

What happened? Only commenting in this forum since I keep hearing about layoffs...unfortunate.

Felt a bit unserious.

Are we done with the big changes or is there still more planned and coming soon?

Did everyone get the all employee Townhall invite ? My colleague did not. Does it mean she is in trouble ?

I talked to a coworker recently who said the pay increases in the past were retroactively paid out, going back to the beginning of the year. Is that true?

Seems like a hard working and nice guy. Just an Arun thing?

Bonus payouts and merit increases were small this year. Idk about you all.

Do you know of anybody who was cut today?

Wondering how they differ among departments, what is your API percentage goal?

Which are we getting? Which are we hopeful for?

Between the constant cost cutting and the obvious favoritism, this place is tough to navigate. If you're not in with the right people, your work just doesn't seem to matter. Leadership feels disconnected and the culture has turned pretty toxic. I... — read more 

Any teams impacted today?

Anyone hear anything of layoffs in IL and TX? Just had some teammates say they’ve seen folks being escorted out buildings.

I’m about 9 months into HCSC. I heard mixed reviews about the organization before I joined. My immediate team is friendly and professional, but it seems the company as a whole is dysfunctional. There is no accountability and no one really knows... — read more 

Spotted getting off on the 16th floor. Eyeroll. Expect them to be paid millions to recommend “cost savings” in RIFs that will never materialize.

I think we'll see leadership changes soon.

What percentage of the company will leave in 2026 due to 5 days in. Badge in and badge out coming as well……
